Duck tape is NOT a mispronounciation of duct tape. Duck tape is the original name of the tape from when it was first invented and used by the military. Only, when people started using duck tape to repair ducts, it got the name duct tape.
Duck tape sucks for repairing ducts because it falls off after a while. The officially recommended tape for repairing ducts is foil tape.
Duck tape is used in movies extremely often. A few examples:
- Panic Room
- American Pie: The Wedding
- Frailty
The comic boot error has a healthy obsession with duck tape!

1. A person who is ambidextrous, specifically with their feet. Derived using the Latin word pes, which means feet. They are equally skilled at using either their left or right foot, which can provide an advantage in sports such as surfing, soccer, and the triple jump in athletics.
2. The ability of someone to perform skilful tasks with their feet such as writing and eating with chopsticks, by holding things between their toes.
3. A car where either the left or right headlight works, but not both at the same time. Based on the word pediddel, which means a car with only one working headlight.

A vehicle similar to the Humvee. A Mumvee is the next logical step above the SUV, and is always driven by Moms. The most offroad driving a Mumvee ever does is when picking up children from school. See also: MILF Mobile
The Mumvee is such a large vehicle compared to the SUV, that you could crash into a skyscraper and topple it without any injury to your children in the back seat.
